CATEGORIES: Accommodation in South Africa » Self Catering Chalets & Cottages » South Africa Self Catering » DESCRIPTION: The Holiday farm is situated on the edge of the Middelberg Pass which is part of the Cederberg Mountain Range and totally covered in unspoiled natural fynbos. The surrounding Cederberg Wilderness Mountains are covered in snow during winter months and flowers during spring. The distance is about 1¾ hours drive from Cape Town and 3km from Citrusdal farm village. The unique setting of this secluded cottage with beautiful 360º views over the Oliphants River Valley to the west and to the east of the Cederberg Widlerness area is the perfect romantic hideaway getaway for honeymooners, couples and families. Visit this totally private 28ha holiday farm with only one cottage for total privacy to escape from city life and experience country air, openness, tranquillity and solitude. AccommodationCottage The cottage is environmentally friendly as it works on solar power with fluorescent bulbs and gas for the fridge / freezer, geezer and stove. The cottage has two rooms – one with a queen size bed and second with two single beds. All the beds of course have cotton percale bedding and towels. Burglar bars have been added for an extra sense of privacy and security for this totally private cottage. The bathroom and kitchen has been newly done in a rustic earthy undertone with furniture made from brandy oak barrels which adds to the environmently friendly character. The bathroom has a shower and an outside bamboo shower for the naturalist and more adventurous. The living room with its high beam ceiling and mohair has sofas that are arranged near the fireplace and compliments the relaxed atmosphere of the cottage and its spacious natural surroundings. Romantic lanterns can be used either at the dinner table, swimming pool at night or the outside dining area at the fireplace. The cottage is under eucalyptus trees which allow it to be cool during the hot summer months. The terrace overlooks the valley and with its hammocks positioned in the trees with panoramic views over the valley it’s the ideal spot for your afternoon siestas. The terrace is also the perfect spot for sundowners or a braai. On the other side of the valley the Oliphants Mountains seems weightless in the haze. Other visitors to the indigenous Fynbos and succulent rock garden include butterflies, birds (francolins, sugarbirds, barn owls, veroux Eagle, falcons) and dragon flies. The plunge pool and pool loungers are 60m and add to the laid back relax feeling of the farm cottage. The outdoor bamboo hot shower also compliments the natural feeling that the cottage creates. Cool of in the pool or stretch out on a lounger / hammock – the choice is yours. Attractions and ActivitiesBird watching, day dreaming, landscape painting, hiking around fynbos escarpment, mountain biking on farm roads (please hire in advance) or go into Citrusdal village for a round of golf, Quad biking, paint ball or horse riding. |
